Dialogue
Zero: I can't say I understand Alisaie's answer, but a debt is a debt.
Alisaie: At first I didn't know what to make of Zero, but her frankness speaks to me. I like her!
Alphinaud: My thanks again for agreeing to help. Alphinaud: The Ilsabard contingent brings in shipments of food, medicine, and other necessities by airship. Alphinaud: We have yet to deliver a share of supplies to Tertium, and I would appreciate it if one of you could assist us with the task today.
Zero: I'll do it.
Alisaie: Well, Forename. It looks like you're with me, then. Alisaie: Voidsent sightings have been increasing by the day, which is why I had a mind to go out and patrol the Eblan Rime. Shall we? Alisaie: Voidsent were spotted here not long ago. Considering the proximity to Camp Broken Glass, everyone is understandably concerned. Alisaie: But hopefully not for much longer. You follow this road eastward, and I'll have a look to the north. If you should encounter any voidsent, I won't begrudge you for dispatching them without me.
System: You survey your surroundings, but do not spy any errant voidsent...
You sense a voidsent presence! The enemy is still about!
Alisaie: All finished, are we? Good. Alisaie: The cold doesn't let up out here, does it... Alisaie: They've the means to keep everyone warm at Camp Broken Glass and Tertium. But the measures are still only temporary. Alisaie: Subsisting on charity, dreading the day the sympathy of others is exhausted — it's no way to live. They need lasting safety and security. Alisaie: Though things will never be as they once were... Alisaie: If we can restore a modicum of normalcy to their lives, maybe that will be enough for them to move forward. Alisaie: If we're to achieve that, we have to work harder. I have to work harder.
Player Choice: What will you say? • You're doing your best. Anyone can see that. • Just try not to overdo it, eh?
Choice: You're doing your best. Anyone can see that. Alisaie: L-Lest you misunderstand, I wasn't fishing for a compliment... As I said, I'm doing this because I want to. Alisaie: Still...I appreciate your support.
Alisaie: Well, our work here is done. We should be heading back. Alisaie: I hope Alphinaud and Zero haven't gotten into any trouble. Alisaie: I cannot imagine how awful it must have been to serve as Zenos's avatar. To not only suffer him, but so much else... Alisaie: She's a fighter all right. Like you and me.
Meanwhile at the Tertium... Famished Resident: Thank you, miss. Thank you. Zero: This feels...strangely familiar... Restless Resident: Excuse me, Alphinaud. My wife, she's come down with a high fever. Do you think you could take a look at her? Alphinaud: Of course. Give me a moment. Alphinaud: Zero, may I leave the rest here to you? Zero: Fine by me.
Jullus: Thank you again for your help. Jullus: Er...Zero, was it? I take it you're one of Alphinaud's comrades? Zero: Comrade...? We've entered into a cooperative pact, if that's what you mean. Jullus: Pact? No, no, nothing so formal. What I mean is, you must know each other well. Be on good terms, enjoy each other's company─that sort of thing. Zero: Then no, he's not my comrade. I have none. Nor will I ever, I think. Jullus: Oh... Zero: Did I say something odd? Jullus: No, not at all. On the contrary, it makes sense. Jullus: When Alphinaud and the contingent first arrived, we rejected them out of hand. Jullus: Whatever they may have claimed, they were the enemy. Savages with their savage ways. To accept their help was to admit defeat. Jullus: But no matter how poorly we treated them, they didn't turn their backs on us. They stayed and listened. Jullus: That's just the kind of people they are. Makes sense they'd get along with someone like you, who tries to push others away. Zero: Get along? I'm upholding my part of the bargain. There's nothing more to it than that. Jullus: If you say so... Jullus: Ah, I'd nearly forgotten why I came. Are you hungry? Jullus: We all get rations, and considering the work you're doing, you're as good as one of us. Zero: I am running low on aether... Very well. Jullus: Azim Steppe-style dumplings. Buuz, they call them. Jullus: Never had a dumpling? It's like...a kind of bread stuffed with a filling─meat or vegetables usually─that you bake or steam. Jullus: We have our own recipes in Garlemald, too. My mother liked to make them. My brother and sister always fought over the jam-filled ones... Jullus: J-Just think of it as bread, all right? Jullus: I should warn you, though, they're spicy─helps them keep longer, I assume. Too much for the children to handle, though. Zero: Interesting... Jullus: Interesting good or interesting... Zero: I don't know much about taste. Not anymore. But I do feel a sensation in my mouth. Jullus: Is that a bad thing? Zero: Not necessarily. Jullus: Heh, that's enough for me. I've heard it said that spices are more akin to fire than flavors. Perhaps that makes them easier to understand. Alisaie: Oh, Jullus. Getting acquainted with Zero, are we? Jullus: Um...ah... I-I suppose I am... Alisaie: No harm in that. Acquaint away! Alphinaud: Ah, everyone is here. Excellent. Thank you all for your hard work. Alphinaud: I've just finished up myself. Shall we go and find Estinien? 1st Legion Soldier: Alphinaud! Alisaie!
